I don't even remember any more. Maybe Tsugunai, but that would have been some months back.

Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin.

>What games are the next up on your backlog?

I don't know, and it just keeps getting bigger. Might start G.O.D: Heed the Call to Awaken since that had a translation recently, or try to get through Gravity Rush and Gravity Rush 2 before the latter's servers close, but I don't know. I haven't really been in a vidya mood lately.

Certainly an issue for games with online functionality at times. I've heard the PS3 game White Knight Chronicles II was pretty decent back in the day, but the servers for it being dead apparently lock like half the game out at this point.

yakuza 6 when it arrives tomorrow , Okami was almost done but it got bumped down the log and will probably wait there awhile, not a bad game but really too easy and traversing the overworld wears on me since i'm impatient as fuck

Wild Arms 1, 2, 3, and ACF all have their three (four in the case of WA3) main characters being given their own playable character introductions prior to them joining up when the game actually starts, but those are more prologue with the bulk of the game being them after having teamed up. If you're looking for multiple playthrough/replay value intersectionality, those might not fit the bill, but figured I might mention them anyhow.

Maybe 7th Saga though? From what I've heard you can encounter the other characters you didn't pick to play as allies or enemies. Might want to look into the fan-made patch that restores parameters to their original JP values though, since apparently Enix made shit a lot more difficult out here in the west.

Just beat World of Final Fantasy last night, and Kingdom Hearts DDD last week.

>What games are you currently playing?

DBZ: Attack of the Saiyans, Grandia 2, and I'm trying to get all the endings in OG Nier. I wanna beat all these games and the two listed above before I start playing anything else.

>What games are the next up on your backlog?

Secret of Mana not the remake, SRW V, Xenogears, Chrono Cross, Shogo, Tron 2.0, Dragon Quest Builders, Pier Solar, Drakengard, Black Sigil, Omikron. I'm also in the middle of Riven and the 7th Guest, but I haven't played them in a while. I'm probably gonna have to restart Riven, as I'm sure I'll have no fucking idea what's going on when I try playing it again.

I've played games before myself that series fans weren't especially fond of and still got my enjoyment from it. Which isn't to call them especially good entries in their franchises, but more that knowing what to expect and having already low expectations might help soften a blow.

Me too; found a cheap copy last year or so (one of those games I really don't get where the demand is to warrant it being over $80 complete). I still find it funny that they have a character named "Neet" that doesn't want to go to school or learn his family's trade.

I only liked the aesthetics in that game, probably because Hideaki Itsuno and his team went to Europe and check out all the awesome architecture, while Kamiya and the original DMC team were left out to rot.

The only things of value DMC2 brought to the table are the 5-part ranking metric that it pioneered for DMC3 and a few proto-style moves like rain storm and wall running. I don't know how you put up with it, I can't stomach more than a few missions every few years.

Just because everyone you know is a fan of a game it doesn't mean you need to be to. I mean, I'm not trying to speak ill of Metal Gear, but you should be playing a game because you want to, not because it'll satisfy someone else.

Going to second >>14654797 as well, but be aware that you will playing through the same areas and bosses a good bit, as well as only being able to unlock characters in a given order rather than choosing who to play as first.

Dead Rising is kicking my ass but I still love it and Sengoku Rance is a blast to play holy shit. Trying to get Autism Survivor out of the way since I was so close to beating it a couple years back and the end game shit fucked up my overall decent playthrough.

Well i started the series with DMC4 and I loved it so I then went back and got DMC 1, 2, and 3. I had zero expectations going into DMC2, I knew nothing about it. When I heard later that Everyone hated it, I didn't understand why at first since I enjoyed the game just fine. but now actually thinking about it I totally understand the mind set of how disappointing it would be to go from DMC1 which pretty much invented the modern action game, to then being hyped for DMC2 which is a noticeably inferior game.

Like I said I totally get why people find DMC2 Dull, but I just don't for some reason. I enjoy actually trying to do well, getting to S rank in combat and maintaining actually requires a little skill, since if you stand still for more then a second it resets back to D.

I guess having zero expectation can also have a similar, if more neutral effect too. I remember playing and enjoying WA4 for what it was worth due to not expecting much from it after all the complaints I'd read about it from other anons prior, but I do understand why it would be considered such a low point in its series at the same time.

Sonic 3 and Knuckles. Jesus Christ, FUCK the Death Ball. I'm also so sick of Blue Spheres by now. Cool concept, but I can only put up with them for so long.

>What games are you currently playing?

Yet another playthrough of Shovel Knight, going for low% and attempting deathless. Also playing Touhou HSiFS (technically already beat it but going for 1cc because fuck getting the bad ending), Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky, and planning on doing another TTYD playthrough this year.

nothing. No, I did """finish""" two games a while ago, dungeon siege with CHEATS because I was so fucking bored of it and I suck, and mario bros. 3 with save states because I fucking suck horribly and didn't feel like learning the levels

>What games are you currently playing?

fucking nothing. I played smash on cemu on and off but it's really mediocre and I'm not having much fun at all.

I need fucking help I want to play a game I actually want to play right now. I'm so fucking burnt out on everything and I have an extremely cancerous taste in vidya, maybe I'll just pirate some triple ayy games and hope for the best

AAA shit will only burn you out more, play something with passion put into it and always has a reason to keep you going, might as well recommend Ghost Trick to you too. It's more of a VN than a game but it's so densely packed with twists and humor that I think even the most jaded of anons can enjoy it.
